Lets take the word "choice" out of the equation you do not have a choice as such, you are simply stating a preference it's the admissions authority who determine were pupils go. It's political dogma that parents get a choice they do not

I can't believe you only put one school down when you could've looked at two others. They shouldn't, but often pupils are judged by their parents, and only putting one school down makes it look like you couldn't give a damn about looking around all the options in my opinion.

You'll be VERY lucky if they let you appeal on it. I'm thinking that you should probably make the most out of whatever you have been given now, concentrate on helping with homework and things like that (if you can). I'm sure it wont be the end of the world, every school has bright pupils.

MICHELLE, you OBVIOUSLY DIDNT read all this thread, the people who bothered to read it actually know what they are talking about, meaning stop jumping into conversations when you DONT know all the facts, i said FROM THE BEGINNING that i had only put one school down, now stop trying to jump on the bandwagon, you talk utter bollox and you think you are big and clever, when actually you are quite dim arent you

I think you will find that alot of parents do that... when i left primary school my dad only put one choice down and that was for the only catholic school in the area....AND no matter how bright a child is... how can they achieve their full potential at a rubbish school?? If schools dont need to be good for their pupils to learn what is the point of OFSTED?

Says the chavette who, on her own admission, isn't catholic and hasn't had her son baptised, applies for a place at a catholic high school. She says she didn't think he would get in. So does she name two acceptable alternatives? Does she fairy-cakes. Surprise, surprise he doesn't get in and the Local Education Authority allocates him a place at another school. Flashytart doesn't like this and stamps her feet, "I'm not sending him there" "I'm going to thcweam and thcweam and thcweam".
Who's the one who is really quite dim now.
